  • 7. Canadian Manufacturing Activity: A Geographic Perspective Archived
    Thematic map: 31F0028X
    Description:

    There is a diversity of manufacturing activity that contributes to Canada's regional economies. The spatial distribution of these activities is far from symmetrical, with most activity being concentrated within the Québec City - Windsor corridor. In 1997, the provinces of Ontario and Québec accounted for approximately 76% of Canada's value of shipments. Using data from the Annual Survey of Manufactures, two maps have been created to highlight the predominant manufacturing activity by census division in 1983 and 1997. Employing advanced mapping software, it is possible to accurately make maps which show the correspondence between manufacturing activity and the ecumene. The brief discussion herein will help readers to interpret the enclosed maps.

    Description: In early 1998, 3 successive storm fronts dropped as much as 110 millimeters of freezing rain through parts of Eastern Canada. This ice storm had a notable impact on the hundreds of thousands of people who suffered electricity outages which, in some cases, lasted longer than one month. But other effects were also felt and continue to be: human lives were lost, livestock perished, ecosystems were damaged, economies were disrupted, emergency response systems were strained beyond capacity. In short, Ice Storm 98 was an event that will not soon be forgotten.

    This Statistics Canada publication gathers a series of six annotated maps and tables illustrating some of the impact the meteorological event had as it stormed through the St. Lawrence River Valley: population, employment, retail sales, vegetation cover, dairy cows and sugar maple taps are illustrated and briefly discussed.

    Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202100700003
    Description:

    Since 2000, the oil and gas extraction industry has averaged 5% of GDP for Canada, 21% for Alberta, and 25% for Newfoundland and Labrador, making it an important contributor to the Canadian economy. Following the oil price crisis of March and April, 2020, many oil and gas companies in Canada cut back their production and investment plans. One year later the price of oil has increased to pre-crisis levels, and the recovering global economy may support a rebound in global oil demand. This article examines to what extent the industry has recovered from the crisis and the challenges facing the industry, now and in the future.
